It still is surrounded by a heavy stone wall. We visited Yorkminster cathedral and here again we saw some of the finest architecture in the world. The cathedral‘s stained glass windows are said to be unexcelled anywhere. The Edinburgh train was hours late, due to the cold and we did not reach the Scottish cag’iet:l until midnight. We went to in the North British Railway hotel withâ€" out supper. _ _ We returned to the institute the next day. The ground was frozen too hard for outside demonstraâ€" tions, so we were shown some inâ€" teresting films on British plowing. That afternoon we lookar around Next morning we were met by, T. B. Manson of the Department of Agriculture for Scotland who showed us a part of the city and after lunch we attended the interâ€" national rugby match between Scotland and Wales. They take their football seriously here for despite the cold weather and ‘bad roads the attendance was 50,000. The rules are altogether differâ€" ent from Canadian rules but we found the game interesting. Scotâ€" land was defeated 22 to 8 but in spite of the defeat there was a big time in the old town that night for all the Welsh and most of the Scotâ€" tish players were in our hotel. Next morning we attended servâ€" ice in St. Cuthbert‘s church in Edinburgh. Some of us had been anxious to go to St. Giles whera the Rev. John Knox used to preach but it was closed for a while. In the afternoon we were taken for a drive through some of the better farming sections and we had an excellent view of the Forth bridge, a wonderful piece of engiâ€" neering, intact in spite of the blitz. Later we went through Edinburgh Castle and saw the 1914â€"1918 Seotâ€" tish War Memorial situated within its walls. . A sugar beet harvester is anâ€" other implement of their own deâ€" sign. A large acreaÂ¥e of wi" beets is grown in England and this machine pulls, tops and elevates the neets into a cart or truck, thus saving a great deal of hard work.

When turning at the headâ€" land, the plowman simply trips a lever, the plow half rotates and he goes back the same furrow. This eliminates dead furrows in a field where not necessary for drainage. Harvester For Sugar Beets _ On arrival we went straight to the National Institute of Agriculâ€" tural Engineering at Askham Bryan, four or five miles from York. This building was formerly an agricultural school and farm of 400 acres but was taken over for agricultural research in 1942. Here they test all kinds of farm maâ€" chinery and design many new types. uts ul Fuel is verÂ¥I scarce and in many places there has been no heat in our rooms. But we‘ve had wonderâ€" ful hospitality everywhere we‘ve been &nd should not complain. After our stay in southern Engâ€" land we left L)ndon for Yori.

The natural K result of overeating is obesity. It has been said that we in America eat ourâ€" y selves‘ into a premature grave. The pendulum: then frequently swings back to the other extreme. We go on a diet. Many _ selfâ€"imposed â€" reducing â€" diets wouldn‘t keep a bird alive, and often serious vilamin, mineral, and protein deficiencies result. In recent years great strides have been made in our knowledge of nutrition. For the maintenance of optional health one must be assured that proper balance of variâ€" ous foods is maintained.

Simpson‘s Drug Store Cecil Simpson, Phm.B. This farm produces about 125 acres of potatoes each year as well as a lot of turnips and about 20 acres of sugar beets which farmers in some sections are cd!n]pelled to gmw. The potatoes are sold mostly or seed and are quite a profitable crop, avenglng as much as 12 tons per acre. e were surprised to find that most of the potatoes are picked by hand, thus requiring a lot of extra laborâ€"for some reason they are not satisfied with the poâ€" tato diggers. Sixteen men are emâ€" ployed yearly, with some casual labor during the harvest months. It seemed evident that the labor situation is not as acute as it is in Canada, Perth Angus Sale o ns After lunch we returned to Perth and attended the sale of the Angus cattle, Between four and five hunâ€" dred passed through the ring, averâ€" aging about one a minute. The Grand Champion Bull sold for 5,800 guineas ($24,476) for export to South America. The reserve bull was purchased by Mr. F. W. Hardâ€" ing of the U.S. for 4,600 guineas ($19,412). With the exception of a few of the tops, prices were lower than we expected. _ _ e We drove.from Perth to Glasgow this morning through heavy snow and over very slippery roads. At lunch we were the guests of the Scottish _ Coâ€"operative Wholesale Association, one of the largest coâ€" operatives in the world. It was orâ€" ganized about 100 years ago by a few farmers. They handle or manuâ€" facture almost every commodity that‘s on the market. In the past the company was noted for its fine horses and while many have been replaced by trucks, they still have about 100 left. This afternoof we are to take the train for Carlisle and then we‘re to go to Workington where the plowing match is to be held, weatger permitting. After that it will be over to Ireland for some new adventures. The monthly meeting of the Misâ€" sion Cirele of Central United Church, was held at the home of Mrs, Iva Owen, 1905 Jane Street, on Wednesday evening, March 5th, with the gresident, Mrs. Viola Murr:‘f' in the chair. The meeting opened with a few verses of hsymn 556, "Sun of My Soul, Thou Saviâ€" our Dear," followed by a prayer after which reports were read and the general business discussed. _ Central Church Mission Circle Hear Miss Parker _ Mrs. Winnie Allen then took charge of the devotional part of the meeting. t Tuesday morning we drove up to Fifeshire to see one of the hrhcr farms in Scotland, that of Mr. George Clark, Nether Pitlochie. The farm contained about 1,000 acres, 600 beinfi sown to spring crop annually. Mr. Clark is not a ‘dairgv farmer but feeds about 200 to 300 steers Â¥enrly. These are purchased in Ireland at between 12 to 13 cents per pound. He does not consider there is very much profit in feeding cattle at present “rricos but finds it necessary in order to utilize the straw to make manure. Most of the cattle are finished in the stable and marketed; the balâ€" ance are put on grass. They would weigh from 13 to 15 ewt. each.. _ "-:l'fi-é's";;.efi(ver of the evening, Miss Parker, social worker of the York Next we went to the dm'!;m of the Lord Provost of P Ure Primrose.
